Dungeon Defense (WN)

Continental force May 30, 1513.

It was only the first anniversary of the fireworks war. On May 30, last year, Laura led a Helvetica mercenary to invade the kingdom of Sardinia. Helvetica mercenaries became legends. There were only the same number of days, but there were many pawns trying to find some great meaning here.

“The goddess of war guards our monarch and his successor. ”

“Summer is a season blessed by us. You can't lose. ”

It's called superstition.

However, it was also true that such superstitions greatly affected the soldiers' morale.

I ordered the flag to be embroidered without missing an opportunity. Glory to the goddess of Athens. Laura de Farnese is already considered the rebirth of the goddess to mercenaries. It was a short and effective sentence.

“Goddess Athens! Bless us! ”

“Oh, look at the beautiful appearance of the goddess. How sacred. ”

…… or maybe it worked a little too well.

As Laura passes by on the Black Horse, the soldiers around her kneel down, and then burst out tears of inspiration or raise their prayers, as if they knew the real goddess. This was quite spectacular. Laura gravely replies to the cheers of the soldiers.

“Goddess Athens, look this way! ”

“Please bless me once! ”

It was almost popular with fanatics.

The problem is that all those who are so passionate are mercenaries who rolled around on the battlefield. The ugly woman who ran away because she was terrified of a local nutcase said, "Goddess! ’I cried, and a surreal sight opened.

Laura blew up about this. While I was wandering around the crowd, when I entered the barracks alone, I did not spare myself.

“Goddess something, Goddess! I'm a man, not a god. I thought it was nonsense to sink anyway, but my voice grows louder every day. ”

“It's a great medicine for morale for soldiers. ”

“Shame on you! ”

Laura's face flushes red with a loud shout.

Cute. I've been thinking about it my whole life, but Laura was also the cutest when she was embarrassed about something she shouldn't have done.

“Think of it like this at all. My Laura is as beautiful as a real goddess to the soldiers. He's good at warfare. He takes good care of his soldiers, and he's beautiful. Isn't that a goddess? ”

“ ……. ”

Since that day, Laura has not complained about the worship of the goddess. Rather, every time the cheer burst, I nodded relaxed. Laura was cute even though she didn't know how high up she looked and was proud of herself.

It would be obvious to see the atmosphere like this, but our military morale was the best.

We had to overcome one obstacle to get to the capital of the Habsburg Republic where our troops were stationed. It was the Alps. Just as we broke through the mountain ranges in the fire war, we had to rush here again.

Older men never let a large army pass by. It is the toughest mountain range on the continent, and is treated as an English mountain where everyone lives early....

Laura summons the commanders and spits out just one word.

“How many days do I need? ”

“Give me a week, Duke. ”

It was a moment when the Alps collapsed into a plain, simple terrain.

This is why I and Laura chose the Demon King to hide only the Helvetica mercenaries. For Helvetica, the Alps were home. There was no skilled soldier like them to get through the mountains.

Moreover, this time it was not through the steepest parts of the Alps. Compared to the path broken through in the War of China, it was almost mild. Of course, even as a regular soldier, you won't be able to march.

“A week is too long. I'll be done in six days. ”

“This is going to be quite a picnic! ”

The commanders shouted curiously.

They hated to be pushed from their pride even after they died.

Here I added one more trick. Helvetica, as it is well known, was a Federation made by several tribes, among which the Dwarf and Elven tribes were very bad. We looked at each other like enemies on the same household topic. We should call it a rival psychology.

“Separate the Elven Battalion from the Dwarf Battalion and march separately. ”

I decided to use that psychology.

While we were just dividing the troops, we separated them by faction. "It was the one that caught me off guard. It was clear that they would compete on their own even if they let it go.

At the beginning of the mountain range, everyone was calm. I remained moderately vigilante while resting, mocking on foot, and proactively guarding the war. The problem was that sometimes the Elven Force passed by the Dwarves.

“Phew.”

A little snort.

You slowpokes can get away at any time, but they're just courtesy aids. The elves ridicule the Dwarves, passing them by just a little. There was not much conversation, but snoring was originally a hostile gesture.

“No, are those Ganna bastards...? ”

“Are they laughing at us? ”

Of course, the Dwarves would not notice.

The pride of both factions began on the first day of the March. One half day, the Dwarves came a little ahead. And of course, the Dwarves get their faces geometrically crumpled when they pass by an Elven army.

“Whew.”

I made fun of him.

The elves stare at the dwarves, dumbfounded. And slowly my face rotted. The so-called tap was spinning.

“Hey, those mustache bastards who can't stick to the ground during the Apocalypse! ”

“Are you trying to play with us or what? ”

Thus, the surpassed and surpassed battle ignited the fire.

There was no rest. The commander confronts the deputy, and the senior soldier seeks his successor. Lesser soldiers did not appoint him for the pain he suffered, but projected it against his enemies, the Elven Army. Typically there was a beautiful up-and-down relationship there.

In the beginning, Helvetica mercenaries were organized into squads of neighborhoods. I was from a senior, successor or trend. If the oldest brother in the village told me to go, I had to really do what I was told. Moreover, it was very important to kick the shit out of those no-good bastards!

“What a bunch of faggots! ”

“Snuggles snorting in the mud! ”

“Hypocrite!”

“You perverts! ”

Totally topsy-turvy.

From the perspective of the third party, there was no place to be childish. But like all childish fights, the parties were more serious and serious. If Laura and I were normal commanders, we'd have to put an end to this useless, pointless competition.

But Laura was also a little far from normal people's standards.

“Holy woman, please. ”

The blessing of the Lady Longgwi was effective in restoring strength to the soldiers. A long time ago, I lost a battle over the blessing of the Long Gwy Lady to the Brittany army. It was my turn to use it this time.

Sancti Longgwi blessed the soldiers with a look on her face.

“... only I can prove my strength. Let all things that have life rejuvenate again. ”

Once the next day.

“Today we are willing to face death with the only freedom that we are given. That's why we know that mortals are the only ones who enjoy immortality……. ”

Once again in three days.

The soldiers, who seemed to have fallen exhausted at least now, have doubled their courage and moved their feet again. Laura was mistaken for the rebirth of Lady Athens. Along with the blessing of the Lady of Athens, Longgwi, coincidentally, the superstition of the soldiers has now evolved into a collective zealot.

“The goddess has ordered us to fight off those wretched elves! ”

“Come, my friends! My fellow countrymen! It is our duty to crush the noses of Dwarves! ”

Faith exploded in a slightly strange direction.

I didn't know anything. Did I ever tell you Laura was a real goddess? There was no reason for them to correct their misconceptions widely.

Somehow, Sancti Jacqueline Longgwi appears to have suffered serious mental damage.

“This is not the sacred battlefield, this is the power the goddess has given the girl... to fight with her pride... Ah, goddess Athens! Please do not forgive your humble and sensitive acolytes! I'm sorry! I'm really sorry……! ”

Whenever she blessed the soldiers, she fell to the ground and wept.

I couldn't understand it well. Is that what all religions do? Even though the white priest's uniform was dirty in the dirt, it was a little compassion to see him knelt down and desperate. I approached the saint and patted her on the shoulder.

“It's all right, Lady Longgwi. I don't know why you're sad, but look at that. ”

I point my finger at the troops. The saint turned her head along my fingertips. There were Dwarves who had just been blessed and defended the goddess of Athens. Of course, their eyes burned Eagle in hostility to the Elves.

“Today is the day I crush the cowards! ”

“Thank you, goddess Athens. Let's crush the Bear Claw Tribe with honor! ”

I glanced at the saint with a round smile.

“What do you think? Your faith in Lady Athens is growing. It's a very rewarding task as a saint. ”

“ ……. ”

“They will be faithful followers of Lady Athens for the rest of their lives. Longgwi. You have accomplished the task given to the goddess apostle better than anyone. The Goddess will be pleased with you. You can be proud. ”

Then the Longgwi girl let go and wept.

“My life has never been right since I got involved with you! Goddess! Ah, goddess! ”

“Well, what's your problem? Tell me. I'll try and fix it. ”

“Everyone complains! ”

The Longgwi girl threw stones at me.

I didn't hit a single one because of my poor accuracy, but I had to run. By the way, I've been riding a Wyvern borrowed from Gamikin the whole time the Army has marched, so once I fled high above the sky, there was no way for the Longgwi Lady to catch me.

“Get down! You son of a bitch, you're ruining my life! Take responsibility! Take responsibility at all costs! ”

The Longgwi girl continues to fire meaningless rocks.

No matter how you look at her, she is not a saint, but a berserker. She was an old maid who was hysterically hysterical every day because she missed out on the cloudiness. Poor thing...... Humans could collapse there if they were mentally driven out.

Regardless of the frenzy of the Lady Longgwi, our troops marched literally like a storm.

It's been four days since I entered the Alps.

We broke through the mountains at an incredible rate. Despite the expansion of the vigilante, the military hardly seemed to be suffering. Together with Laura's leadership and my tactics and the support of the Lady Longgwi, we have succeeded in a historic enforcement force.

We had a city called Salzburg standing far ahead of us. A key city protecting the southern hemisphere of the Habsburg Republic. In other words, if we take that place down, the republic's capital is on the verge.

Laura lowers the baton slowly.

“Erase Salzburg from the map. ”

Then the war began.
